maximum speed of 15.9 knots and the Az
lanta with a speed OF over fifteen knots. These
ships Tho World " describes as four or i've
knots slower than forcign-built vessels OF war.
These foreign cruisers then must have speed
of 20 or 21 knots But unfortunately for the
critics argument there is not ship In the
British Navy that has exceeded IS knots on a
trial trip under the most favorable condltiohs'
and only one vessel in tie French Navy that

and demonstrating patriotic feeling.

Gcicnt patriotism to believe him. He recently
stated that ship-yar1s which could turn out the
fastest sailing and steam yachts could also be
depcndcd upon TO build the fastest cruisers in

well with the Administration. Would it not
he wise to give American shipbuildcrs chance
10 furnish 1S-knot, or even 2O-knot vessels,
when they say they can do it from their own
designs "The World " surely is not so want

can Navy of inferior speed TO an American
Navy of superior speed, which the Govern

As for the armor-platcs and guns, what reason
can our contemporary offer for its want OF faith
in American enterprise 7 The iron and steel
manufacturers of the country can furnish both
nrmor and guns Of superior quality and weight
when they receive adequate encouragement

The Coming Borough Meetings ain Needed-At the DepOt-Personal Men tion-GeneraI Notes.
 Mrs. H. N Beckley, of South Boston, has been spending a few days with friends in town.
 The first Monday in June the annual bor- oueh meeting of Fair Haven East will be held in the engine house. The meeting will | be called for the purpose of laying tax to | meet the current expenses of the ensuing year. It is estimated by those who have given the subject some attention that i've mill tax will have to be laid it | is expected that the fire department will need an appropriation for new supplies, etc. There are some people in the borough lice force, which requires 8 two mill tax to
 maintain, and if these people turn out to the I meeting in any numbers there will no doubt | be lively time as the police have been con- l sidered great improvement to the borough generally, the merchants particularly esteem
 ing their services.
 Friends of Mrs. Hall, wife of Dr. E. c. M.
 Hall, who was thrown from 8 carriage We'd
 nesday night, fear that she has been injured
 internally.
 Henry Smith has been assisting his broth
 CT Eugene at the postofice for the past few
 days.
 The work of extending the side track on
 the Shore Line road from the depot to the junction at Tin bridge is progressing rapidly,
 as are the improvements on the depot.
 The Fair Haven members of the New Ha-
 ven Bicycle club are preparing to take part | in the club parade next Monday afternoon.
 The lawns and gardens in Fair Haven show the need of rain badly. The farmers ! in this vicinity are also anxious for rain and say that if it does not come pretty soon their crops will be entirely ruined.
